How could anyone claim that goverment intervention can still be called "Free Market Capitalism" ?
Fascism could only ever be called STATE capitalism. Not merely capitalism and definitely not ever "Free Markets".

@ToxinalX - How can anyone claim that a free market can exist without government intervention? A a free market anarchist society has never existed, only anarcho-socialism. Private property doesn't even exist without government laws. Free market and state capitalism are the same.

Just like what we see today in America in most respects. Anyone who doesn't stand with the right wing is demonized. I seriously can't see how most folks can flock to the economic royalists so easily..

@Homer177 - The people don't usually flock to the economic royalists, but their representatives sure do. Money really is power in capitalism. And now with Citizens United, the government will be privately owned. If Citizens United is not addressed say bye bye to the U.S. as we know it. Money needs to be separated from politics. The people do not want to cut taxes on the rich, cut social security or medicare. But both Republicans and Democrats have went against their will.
